Using over 25 years of artistic experience, I've put together a glorious, in-person, SUMMER SCHOOL of WORKSHOPS - perfect for anyone wanting to know the basics of different art techniques, improve on rusty skills or for someone who just enjoys creating with other people in a friendly, artistic environment.
These sessions are a way for me to pass on a lifetime of artistic knowledge & let my students experiment and gain a long-lasting confidence in a range of different creative materials and methods.
During this Drawing with Charcoal, a Painterly Approach Workshop you’ll be learning so much more than you'll expect to!
We will explore, push and investigate all the different possible materials we can use with this technique, how they all work, which methods YOU like the best - which paper to use with which instrument - textures, colours and how to produce beautiful, lively drawings in your own style. We will spend the morning experimenting and exploring before moving on to a finished piece in the afternoon. You will end the day bursting with new information, a completely new understanding of how fun this medium is to work with and an excitement for the next drawing you're going to make!
This course welcomes all levels of adult student (18+), great for first-time artists, 'rusty' artists and accomplished artists alike. There's no need to bring anything - all materials are provided.
Laurel Studio is small (but perfectly formed) which means the amount of students is capped at 6 per class - this may mean that these sessions sell out fairly quickly, please be aware of this when thinking about booking your space 😊
Places are non-refundable and non-transferable.

I am unable to offer refunds / transfers to another session / gift vouchers for forgotten/missed sessions which are the responsibility of the purchaser.
In the extremely rare case where a refund is issued there will have to be a service charge taken for my time and the payment/booking charges I will have incurred.
